All their preparation throughout the school year finally paid off at the OC Fair livestock ring from July 13 - 22nd. This year Buena Park students raised steers, pigs, lambs, goats and turkeys. Many students have been raising their projects for over 9 months; cleaning, feeding and taking care of them. For many, it was their first time raising an animal and for others, their last time in the showering. The fair kicked off on Friday with the Goat and Sheep Market classes. Jassar Sorto received 2nd place in his class and Jasmine Hernandez placed 1st in hers. Both moved to the grand champion round and Jasmine Hernandez walked away with the FFA Market Champion Goat and the Supreme Market Goat (basically she has the best goat out of the whole fair!!) The group as a whole received 2nd place. On July 14 sheep and goat kids competed in showmanship, this is where they judge the students on how well they can handle and show their livestock projects Advanced Goat Showmanship: Jassar Sorto (3rd place) & Trinity Figurate (5th place).Novice Sheep Showmanship: Amanda Gomez (4th place), Michelle Castaneda (7th place) & Maria Hernandez, (10th place) Advanced Sheep Showmanship: Kelly Cotledge (4th place), Mary Sandoval (7th place), & Didi Ontiveros (12th place).
